A transverse periodic wave is established on a string. The wave is described by the expression y = 0.005 sin(20.0x + 2ft) where

y is in meters when x and t are in meters and seconds, respectively. If the wave travels with a speed of 20.0 m/s, what is its frequency, f?

Answer:

f =63.64Hz

Explanation:

The equation of the transverse periodic wave

y = 0.005 sin(20.0x + 2ft)

From the equation we can deduce that

Amplitude A = 0.005

Wave number K = 20

Angular frequency w = 2πf

We are asked to find the frequency (f)

the formular for the wave number is given as K = 2π / lambda

Lambda = 2π/ K

Lamda is the wavelength

= 2 × 3.142 /20

= 0.3142m

The velocity of the wave is expressed as v = frequency × lamba (wavelength)

Frequency = velocity / wavelength

f = 20/ 0.3142

f = 63.65Hz

user100 [1]

Answer:

fundamental frequency of pipe will be equal to 74 Hz

Explanation:

We have given for a particular organ pipe two adjacent frequency are 296 Hz and 370 Hz

Speed of the sound in air is 343 m/sec

We have to find the fundamental frequency for the pipe

Fundamental frequency will be equal to difference of the two adjacent frequency

So fundamental frequency = 370 - 296 = 74 Hz

So fundamental frequency of pipe will be equal to 74 Hz

If the distance between two objects decreased, what would happen to the force of gravity between them?
evablogger [386]

Answer: A- It would increase

Explanation:

According to the law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}  

Where:  

F is the module of the attraction force exerted between both objects

G is the universal gravitation constant.  

m_{1} and m_{2} are the masses of both objects  

r is the distance between both objects

As we can see, the gravity force is directly proportional to the mass of the bodies or objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them.

In other words:

<h2>If we decrease the distance between both objects, the gravitational force between them will increase.  </h2>

An ocean thermal energy conversion system is being proposed for electric power generation. Such a system is based on the standar
defon

Answer:

Explanation:

Dear Student, this question is incomplete, and to attempt this question, we have attached the complete copy of the question in the image below. Please, Kindly refer to it when going through the solution to the question.

To objective is to find the:

(i) required heat exchanger area.

(ii) flow rate to be maintained in the evaporator.

Given that:

water temperature = 300 K

At a reasonable depth, the water is cold and its temperature = 280 K

The power output W = 2 MW

Efficiency \zeta = 3%

where;

\zeta = \dfrac{W_{out}}{Q_{supplied }}

Q_{supplied } = \dfrac{2}{0.03} \ MW

Q_{supplied } = 66.66 \ MW

However, from the evaporator, the heat transfer Q can be determined by using the formula:

Q = UA(L MTD)

where;

LMTD = \dfrac{\Delta T_1 - \Delta T_2}{In (\dfrac{\Delta T_1}{\Delta T_2} )}

Also;

\Delta T_1 = T_{h_{in}}- T_{c_{out}} \\ \\ \Delta T_1 = 300 -290 \\ \\ \Delta T_1 = 10 \ K

\Delta T_2 = T_{h_{in}}- T_{c_{out}} \\ \\ \Delta T_2 = 292 -290 \\ \\ \Delta T_2 = 2\ K

LMTD = \dfrac{10 -2}{In (\dfrac{10}{2} )}

LMTD = \dfrac{8}{In (5)}

LMTD = 4.97

Thus, the required heat exchanger area A is calculated by using the formula:

Q_H = UA (LMTD)

where;

U = overall heat coefficient given as 1200 W/m².K

66.667 \times 10^6 = 1200 \times A \times 4.97 \\ \\  A= \dfrac{66.667 \times 10^6}{1200 \times 4.97} \\ \\  \mathbf{A = 11178.236 \ m^2}

The mass flow rate:

Q_{H} = mC_p(T_{in} -T_{out} )  \\ \\  66.667 \times 10^6= m \times 4.18 (300 -292) \\ \\ m = \dfrac{  66.667 \times 10^6}{4.18 \times 8} \\ \\  \mathbf{m = 1993630.383 \ kg/s}

Describe the general relationship between the weight of adult men and the average number of Calories needed daily to maintain a
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The average number of calories needed daily represents the average quantity of calories eliminated by human body due to metabolism and must be compensated by eating and drinking.

The amount of calories contained in the food we eat every day must represent the amount of calories eliminated by the body in that time to have a steady weight.

Explanation:

The average number of calories needed daily represents the average quantity of calories eliminated by human body due to metabolism and must be compensated by eating and drinking. If total quantity of calories in the food we consume every day is higher that the average number of calories needed daily, then weight increases by fat accumulation.

A body of mass 5 kg has a velocity<br><br><br>20 MS <br><br>-1 its Momentum is​
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Momentum is 100 kg.m/s

Explanation:

given

mass, m = 5 kg

velocity, v = 20 m/s

To find : momentum (P)

We know that momentum is given by equation:

p = mv

  = 5 kg x 20 m/s

  = 100 kg.m/s
